<quoted text>you are rookie...these are "SELF-REPORTING" so the numbers is more likely to be HIGHER as folks tend to NOT boast about snorting cocaine for fear of GOING TO JAIL........17 percent of unemployed..."About 1 in 6 unemployed workers are addicted to alcohol or drugs -- almost twice the rate for full-time workers, according to the government's National Survey on Drug Use and Health.http://money.cnn.com/2013/11/26/news/economy/...http://samhsa.gov/data/NSDUH/2012SummNatFindD...

"Psychologists in Canada have compared IQ scores of several thousand British children, who were born in 1958 and 1970, with their stated views as adults on things such as treatment of criminals and openness to working with or living near to people of other races. They also looked at some US data which compared IQ scores with homophobic attitudes.The conclusion: your intelligence as a child correlates strongly with socially liberal views. People with low IQs tend to be more in favour of harsh punishments, more homophobic and more likely to be racist. Interestingly, as these were IQ scores measured when young this does seem to be a measure of something innate, not merely exposure to ‘liberal’ views through education.

The inference is that what we call conservatism is a symptom of limited intellectual ability, signified by fear of the new and of outsiders, a retreat into tradition and tribal loyalty, and an unsophisticated disgust at sexual mores that deviate even slightly from the norm. Put bluntly stupidity correlates with insecurity, hatred, pessimism and fear, intelligence with confidence, optimism and trust.

Cue howls of outrage and not just from the right. In fact, left-wingers, liberals, call them what you will (and as I will argue these terms are far from interchangeable) have maintained something of an embarrassed silence about this. Liberals tend to dislike talk of innate intelligence and are distrustful of IQ tests and any hints of biological determinism. It might suit them politically to say their opponents are dim, but (they like to think) they are too polite to say so....Other studies have found correlations between strong religiosity (a traditional marker of conservatism) and low intelligence."

<quoted text>If drug testing is ok for use on 241,000 USAF Airmen, surely some slacker civilians can stand still for a minute and piss in a cup at the EBT office....'The Air Force previously used a test rate of 64 percent per year, Colonel Talcott said. This means that of 376,900 Airmen, about 241,220 drug tests would be performed during the course of the year. In October, the test rate for the target group increased, though it remained at 64 percent for the rest of the people'http://usmilitary.about.com/od/airforce/a/afd...

<quoted text>I'm sure that a back woods hating racist "PIG" like you isn't familiar with the expression "Planning is essential to progress". So the idiots on the right [LIKE YOU ]decided to copycat and choose Herman Cain proving once again not only your degree of stupid but just how desperate and phony the Republicans can be. He was your front runner, that is until he was outed as a liar, a misogynist, having numerous relation ships. So you see you morons on the right can't even imitate worth a sh1t, But even with all of those traits he was still far smarter than Bush. You and your party are Americas embarrassment. Hypocrisy and lies are your bread and butter.
